Fact of the day

The end of the Democratic presidential race may be approaching sooner than you think.

Published May 6, 2008 3:44PM (EDT)

From NBC News' First Read blog, which headlines the item "Beginning of the End?":

After today, there will be more undeclared superdelegates (264) and more disputed delegates (366 in Florida and Michigan) for the campaigns to fight over than there will be delegates earned in the remaining primaries (217). Indeed, there's an argument to be made that after today, there are more delegates to be had INSIDE THE BELTWAY than out on the trail.
